that district runs from charleston south to the resort of hilton head island. the debate is being held at the citadel and sponsored by patch news service and is expected to begin shortly. we are going live now to that debate for south carolina's first congressional district between republican former governor mark sanford and democrat elizabeth colbert busch. >> we begin tonight with opening remarks framed around the question, what do you consider your greatest professional accomplishment and why? you have a few minutes. >> first i'd like to thank patch.com, south carolina radio and the citadel for inviting us tonight for this very important conversation, and to you moderators, thank you very much for pulling this together for us. thanks very much. can you all hear me all right? >> yeah. >> all right. what is my biggest accomplishment? 27 years ago, i began my career in business. and during that career, i started off making $6 an hour. when i was making $6 with three small children, 3, 5 and 7, i knew that it was not going to be what i needed to have a successfu

argentina, charleston, who knows.ct elizabeth colbert busch to the united states congress. >> let's get back to this ad. sanford says he was at his ex-wife's house to watch the super bowl with his son. and he tried to tell jenny sanford before -- before he went. but he also compares his campaign to the alamo. he says, i'd ask you to cross the line and fight with me. comparing his fight to the alamo? i mean, really? >> well, i think just like the folks at the alamo, he's going to end up dead. i think that he's -- that maybe that is the comparison. mark sanford is the best liar to camera i've seen in 40 years. he said, for instance, he just went over there to watch the super bowl with his son. what he doesn't mention is he had gone to this house many times before. his wife had to get a letter from the charleston police department telling him not the come back. and then he comes back again. he said he went over there to watch the super bowl with his son so he wouldn't be alone. today we find out from the buford newspaper

that will be an opportunity for well inbusch to do very charleston county. her ability to compete in the other counties will play a big factor in the race. >> this is the district previously held by mark sanford was apologized for his own indiscretions, his absence when he was in argentina. give us a sense of the polling. are you looking at with a be to go before voters go to the polls? withe polling shows busch an advantage of nine points. even the democrats i have talked to think she is ahead, but not by that margin. i personally think the race is probably up for grabs, and a lot of people have decided who they like in the race. it becomes an issue of whether or not they will come out and vote. that motivation will come, i think, tonight. a lot of people who may have been on the sidelines and are not too interested in getting involved, i think will be compelled to do so after this debate tonight or they will not. >> what are you looking for this evening? what issues will you be pressing? but we will talk mostly about economic issues for the folks in distri

the charleston newspaper sent out reporters to interview people at the polls, couldn't find very many, turnout was light, found a few. one woman said she voted for mark sanford because, quote, i believe in recycling. so i thought that perfectly summed it up. to me brought to mind perhaps a plastic water bottle discarded on the app latch and trail. >> if she believes in recycling, she's his biggest fan. dick dick, polled better against mark sanford than the other candidate. is this a good outcome for her? >> it is a clear, distinct, very contrasted choice on one hand, a business woman who has success in business, hasn't been in politics, who is beloved in the community, and on the other hand, a guy that's lied to south carolina time and time again. none of the republicans, especially bostic, the most recent opponent, ran any negative television or radio. and i think you're going to see independent expenditures and colbert busch campaign and the democratic party peeling the bark off him. and it is so easy to do. >> eugene, the national democrats have a decision to make about how much mo
